Stephania Batory traveled from Philadelphia to attend the annual convention of the Polish Women's Alliance in Chicago, 1947. The PWA was established as a national group in Chicago in 1898 by Polish middle-class women interested in women's issues. Batory's scrapbook contains momentos and photographs of her train trip and the convention.
